UK based dance music record sub label
Manifesto Records [ 1] was a UK based dance music record sub label of Mercury Records which focused on dance music across all genres. The label began operations in 1994[ 2] with the first release being a remix of Donna Summer 's "I Feel Love " (in which they got Summer to re-record vocals as the original masters had been lost in a fire). The label had 13 Top 10 hits before being wound down in 2002 (a move partially brought about to "bottle the labels unique period because of its unprecedented success[ 1] "). The label was briefly resurrected by Mercury between 2004 - 2006. The label was set up and headed by Eddie Gordon and Luke Neville who recruited Judge Jules as A&R. Jules would recruit Luke Neville. Ben Cherrill (who would later move to Positiva Records in 2001[ 3] ) also had an active role at the label, joining in 1998. Notable acts on the label included Todd Terry , Josh Wink , Byron Stingily , The Space Brothers , Yomanda and York.[ 2] In 2000 the label set up a short lived subsidiary M-->Bargo.[ 4]
Mercury Records would occasionally release promotional club remixes of some of its artists on Manifesto labelled 12"s, in particular for Dina Carroll , who released one single through the label, "Without Love" in 1999.
